The corrosion of iron indicates a chemical change in the metal. Rust (hydrous oxide) is an example of this change that results when iron is exposed to water or damp air. A thin film of oxide forms on the iron; this actually protects the metal from further corrosion by slowing the rate of oxidation. Where salt is present, electrochemical corrosion occurs, and the protective oxide film does not form, thus the corrosion (buildup of rust) continues unchecked. Your iron nail will indeed rust more quickly and severely in salt water.
this is a very wrong statement
the chemicals in the salt water on the substance creates faded substances
The salt increases the water's electrical conductivity, allowing an electric current to form that speeds up the oxidation process. commonly known as rusting.
This is based on principals of electrochemistry.
It rusts because air and water rusts a nail just like boats do so in oil it has some air so that's what makes it rust with the water.
The oxygen in the water. This is true for salt water and fresh water.
Speeds up the rusting process
Oh, yeah! Just ask any sailor! Salt water, because of the ions that salt gives to the mix makes it even more corrosive to most metals.
yes it does because it rusts like all other rusting metals.
when there is water and oxygen. like bridges are in.
The salt is the solute and the water is the solvent. Water is the solvent because it is what dissolves the solid salt into the solution. The water molecules pull apart the crystal structure of salt and surround the salt ions.
Salt and water is a mixture. In a mixture you can mix them together then take them apart. When you put salt in water the salt does not dissolve therefore it is a mixture. If salt dissolved in water it would then be a solution,but salt does not dissolve in water so it is a mixture.Salt does dissolve in water to form a solution, which is a mixture. If a chemical that was insoluble in water was added to water, a mixture would also be formed. Slaf can be separated from water by evaporation and crystallisation, the undissolved chemical by filtration.
Salt Water Because They Rust In Normal Water Too!
salt water
it is because of the oxygen
Nails rust because of O2 or oxygen, when it reacts with metals inside the nail
yes
salt water would rust a nail in roughly 2 hours as salt has a fast reaction to metals (nails).
It will rust faster in a salt water base and it will also rust faster in a tap water base not a sugary or a pop type, they have a slower fashion of rusting.
iT RUST NAILS BECAUSE tACOS rOCK
Nails do not rust in water. Nails only rust in water if oxygen is present. This is because the iron in nails react with oxygen and water to form a compound called hydrated iron(III) oxide.
It could be tomato paste, salt water, or nail polish because of the acids
Any water makes iron rust. Rust is iron oxide. It happens when water allows the oxygen to dissolve in it and get to the surface of the metal. Salt water has dissolve salts in it which makes it work faster.
The nails need to be left in the water for quite a time. The particles of rust will dissolve into the water particles. Gross, but you can.
